  1. Shared Mapped Network Drive discontinue after shutdown/restart


    Hello,I have mapped a few network drives in my laptop from my server, and it is working fine, but whenever I shut down and restart my system, the drives I had mapped earlier are disconnected. And now, because it's disconnected, I need to remap all the drives to my computer.I have faced this issue earlier, but earlier, when I faced this issue, I made some registry changes. Those changes resolved this problem, but that method didn't work on this laptop.I need to know what I can do to resolve this issue. I cannot just map the network drive every time I start the laptop.

    :)

    Trouble Mapping Network Drive

    I have a WD NAS drive connected to my router and have mapped it on three of my computers. I just setup another laptop with Windows 10 and have updated it to 1809 and when I tired Mapping a network drive nothing is displayed in the browse window except the
    computer I am currently using. The drive is shown under network locations in File Explorer but not when you select map network drive and browse. I right clicked on the drive and selected properties and noted the IP address and went back into Map network drive
    but instead of selecting browse I entered the IP address but it still does not map the drive. The strange part is if I go to any of the computers that already has the network drive mapped and select Map network drive and select browse none of those computers
    show the drive either but you can select the mapped drive in the drive list in file explorer and it works just fine.

    I have read several articles both here and elsewhere and tried the suggestions but nothing works. Network discovery is turned on as is file sharing and also checked if all three boxes under SMB file sharing support in Windows features were also checked and
    they are. I have mapped several computers to several different drives over the years and anytime the drive was not listed it was always easy to go into Network Sharing Centre and find the problem but everything seems to be as it should so would appreciate
    if someone can suggest something I may have overlooked.

    Thank you
